June 16, 2015: Fiber Arts Tuesday






For the past several weeks I've been working on this stash-buster afghan, inspired by a similar pattern that appeared in the spring issue of SpinOff. The pattern in SpinOff had the same number of stitches cast on, changing colors after each row, and using the loose ends as fringe. I wanted the stripes to be a bit wider to I'd be able to see the colors of the yarn more clearly.  All of the yarn is my own hand-spun.

I didn't realize until I started knitting how much pink I had in my stash! Some of the pink looks more purple-ish in this photo. I still have quite a bit of yarn that needs to be added to this afghan; I hope to finish it in a couple of months.
